I can't think of an easy way to do it. It will come down to:

* Looking up which package the module came from (likely in the GHC package
database)
* Figuring out if it's in the snapshot or local (the `stack query` command
may help here)
* Finding the relevant source code, checking hs-source-dirs in the cabal
file, and looking for the file in question
